That's what I thought when mine was working like that. Nonetheless, when I tried to run JAWS again a few weeks (maybe months) later it gave me an expiration message. I got the self-same message when I tried to re-install it now on receiving your post.

The message reads:-
"This demo of JAWS has expired. Call your local access technology dealer or contact Freedom Scientific at 727-803-8000 or <EMAIL REMOVED> to purchase your fully-licensed version of JAWS."

I can send you a screen-shot if you like.
